Axillary Breast Fat Pad Removal in India: International Women Eliminate Side Boob Bulge

With Dr. Anmol Chugh – Precision Aesthetic Surgery for Confidence & Comfort

👙 Introduction: The Secret Bulge No One Talks About

You’re wearing a sleeveless dress or a well-fitted blouse—and there it is again, the side boob bulge. For many women, especially Non-Resident Indians (international patients) visiting home, that unsightly lump near the armpit isn’t excess breast tissue—it’s the axillary breast fat pad.

Commonly misunderstood, this localized fat pocket or accessory breast tissue can be stubborn, hormonal, and resistant to diet and exercise.

The good news? Axillary breast fat pad removal in India—especially under the skilled hands of Dr. Anmol Chugh—offers a safe, scar-minimal, and effective solution.

💡 What is Axillary Breast Fat Pad?

The axillary breast fat pad is an excess tissue found:

  • In the armpit or underarm area
  • Just outside the outer breast quadrant
  • Visible especially when arms are down or while wearing sleeveless clothing

It can include:

  • Fatty deposits
  • Accessory breast tissue (extra breast tissue that develops embryologically)
  • Lymphatic or glandular components (in rare cases)

This condition affects women of all body types, not just those who are overweight.
